This week, lots of folks are talking about content moderation on the internet. We’re TSPA, a non-profit supporting thousands of people around the world fighting online harassment, terrorism, child exploitation, and more, and we want to talk about what it’s like to do this work 🧵

[Trust & Safety Professional Association @tspainfo]

There's no denying that this is a rough moment for T&S, but we are heartened to see the community pulling together. We're here for each other, and we'll keep being here for each other.

We'll be rolling out additional job seeker support opportunities in early 2023, and we'll be looking for volunteers from our community to power those offerings. We're here to help however we can. We see you, we support you, and we'll see you around ❤️

Our hearts are with everyone affected by the layoffs of the last few weeks: both the T&S professionals who have lost their jobs and their teams, and the users they served. It is such a deep loss.

Twitter employees get endless shit, but the ones I knew — they worked hard, their work mattered, and they never stopped trying. Not until the moment their screens went blank

Trust and safety is a team sport. Bad actors aren't confined to any one platform, so it's important to uplift good work in this space. Here's a few really cool things the @TwitterSafety team has shipped that have helped shape how the internet approaches safety problems🧵
